"very nice Ashley..."

submission: Seasons Spring

date: December 29, 2006

...while things look very VECTOR...visually it's impressive, kind of a mix of photorealistic and vectorized...some things I noticed...

the visuals were great, however, where ever there seemed to be any real animation it was kind of lacking, this probably was due to the vectorization of the whole piece, the swans, the rabbits, the butterflys...they all worked, but they didn't seem at all in place with 3D environments, they looked to flat...again due to the lack of animation from them being too renderings...

other than that...piece was calming and entertaining to watch :)

END.

Score: 7

"that was pretty comprehensive..."

submission: Sprite Platform Game Tut!

date: December 29, 2006

for the most part, things seemed to be the basic elements of a platform game...however, you didn't cover, dieing... perhpas a quick adjustment or a few more pages to the tut to cover that aspect of your demo...also a "take damage" sprite as well, but I guess if you understand the sprite cycles and the hit test it wouldn't be much more difficult to make that...

you skipped a lot of stuff by just saying " make the game to your liking" which is understandable...but as a tutorial you should comprehensively explain the code and what it does, but over all I liked this tutorial...

END.

Score: 7

"...a solid piece..."

submission: Going Nowhere: 01 (pilot)

date: December 25, 2006

...nice animation, story line and characters, audio was clear also...

...it could just be the way my mind works, or the way you animated their pants as they walk xD, but the fly seams, looked very much like a penis...like, I knew it was the fly seam, but it just made me laugh before anything else and then the whole movie I was waiting to see that...so it kind of ruined it for me...but I tried to enjoy it as much as possible...

END.

Score: 4

"not bad at all"

submission: Assassin Q

date: December 25, 2006

...I certainly do not prefer stick movies, I think if you can animate a stick you certainly can animate a more complex drawn figure, same concepts apply if you use tweens...

...where did you get your sound effects, been needing some of the ones you used?

overall not bad...

END.

Score: 4

"no doubt, it shows promise..."

submission: Zer0-Trailer

date: December 24, 2006

...even you would have to admit, if you just sit back and watch it from an objective point of view, the trailer does do it's job, it's a trailer, but that's mostly due to the music like most good trailers, it's all about the music...

...certainly would prefer a little more preface, some textual elements of what we could expect to see other han just his name and coming soon...

...and on that note, how long is soon?

...but other than that, it's a trailer, Iam still left guessing what "Zer0" will be about...

END.

Score: 5

"oh that Ralphy"

submission: A Christmas Story.

date: December 23, 2006

...could have been a little more dramatic since it was so short, but it's a quick parody...

END.

Score: 0

"umm boo! boooooo!"

submission: .apocalypse.

date: December 21, 2006

...looking at the loading screen, I thought to myself..."gee I wonder if this is going to be a cheesy montage still image slide show movie," :o and guess what? it most certainly was... besides the static transitions I see no effort what so ever to make this more entertaining...

END.

Score: 1

"...mmm"

submission: Revolting Ravenger

date: December 13, 2006

...Iam not excited about this. Music was somewhat fitting, but it seemed more like background or dialogue music. A better music choice and probably a complete re-edit or redo of the trailer would be necessary to bring more excitement to this piece...

...The images were fine, a little static for any "real" animation but with a quicker pased song and perhaps more drawings you could whip up a thrilling trailer to your story...you had the right idea when the faces started to flash and give up just a glipse of what we can expect...but all the other slow parts just seeemed to do worse for the movie...

...as far as the textual content goes...it's too typical...person loses everything, vengence seeking now...it's been done, and can be done a thousand more times, but you just have to word is better, it was very cliche.

END.
